Chapter 935 The World is Big and Small

Dragon-Elephant Martial Saint!

Who in the world has not heard of his name?

Inside the courtyard, a group of white-robed monks from the Dongtian Sect gathered around, all of them blushing with excitement.

"Master, are you serious? The Dragon Elephant Martial Saint wants to come to Datong Prefecture to listen to the sutra?"

"At yesterday's elegant gathering, Abbot Ting Dixian said that the imperial court had been invited this time and that he would reply in early March, stating that he would be the leader of the Dragon Elephant Martial Saint team."

"Wow!"

The young people were noisy.

If Liang Qu is a rising legend, a dormant dragon in the abyss, then Zhang Longxiang is already a flying dragon in the sky!
Zhang Longxiang's real name was Zhang Xiang, and he was from Qizhou.

His father, Zhang Duan, rose from humble beginnings and made his fortune by buying over a hundred acres of fertile land for the family, leaving behind some wealth. However, he worked too hard in his early years and developed a hidden illness, dying at home at the age of thirty-eight.

At that time, Zhang Xiang was only fifteen years old, which was the golden time for cultivation. He resolutely observed mourning for his father for three years. At the age of eighteen, he began to embark on the path of cultivation and achieved some success. At the age of twenty-three, he joined the army and served under Lu Yiyun, the grandson of the Duke of Nanyang.

He remained unknown for two years and did not make any outstanding achievements. Until Zhang Xiang's mother died and he left the army, a strange thing happened.

Lu Yiyun actually sent his personal guards to express condolences.

The guards were puzzled and asked, "Many soldiers have died or suffered a loss, but the general has never come down to ask about it. Why are you the only one who is offering condolences?"

He replied, "This man is brave and has great ambitions. He will surely gain wealth and honor. How can he be treated as a lowly person?"

So far,

The unknown ones stand out.

The Dragon Elephant Martial Saint officially began his journey to fame!
He is three years younger than his peers, but his practice is better than those of thirty years' age. He can master any martial arts within three months of learning, and can use any boxing and kicking techniques within half a day. He gains certain insights from bloody battles, and is respected by all his colleagues in the army. At the age of twenty-eight he started hunting tigers, and his skills gradually became stronger. He often challenged others to fight on the border, and repeatedly made outstanding achievements. He also planned to eliminate Zhen Xiang.

When the first emperor heard about his life, he ordered people to measure his horoscope. He found out that he was from the Dazhu Divine Mountain and that the Owl God snatched food from him. So he gave him a name himself and added the word "dragon" between his name and surname, so he was called Zhang Longxiang!

Are the golden scales just a thing in the pond? They turn into dragons when encountering wind and clouds.

Zhang Longxiang, soaring into the sky!
At thirty-two one enters the state of perfection, and at thirty one attains the four great masters.

There was no war for a year, so he returned to Qizhou and defeated Qizhou's great master Xutuo first. Half a year later, he went upstream along the river and repeatedly challenged the famous Zhenxiang. He was invincible. At the age of thirty-seven, he defeated countless famous masters from thirty-six prefectures and seventy-two states, and turned into a celestial being, which the world called him with his feet on both sides of the Sha River!

It’s almost ten years since we entered the realm of perfection.

He defeated three celestial beings in one fell swoop and thwarted the Beiting encirclement and suppression conspiracy. At the age of forty, he entered the Dragon King and became a Martial Saint!

How magnificent are the majestic dragons and elephants?
How can I not be happy to see it today?
The younger generation cheered and jumped for joy, looking forward to seeing the true appearance of the Dragon Elephant Martial Saint.

The elder pondered.

Beiting has been harassed for years, and the false dragon in southern Xinjiang is gaining momentum.

By sending such a "double-flowered big red stick", was the government trying to attack the Hanging Temple?

The thought flashed through my mind.

Xingyi Boliangqu, who made a lot of noise last year, was a favorite of the emperor and was also closely entangled with the Hanging Temple.

What's more, it is said that he has extraordinary muscles and bones, and has practiced the secret of the Hanging Temple - the immortal golden body.

Even lay disciples don’t have this treatment!
Today, Liang Qu has the intention of taking over from the dragon and the elephant and becoming the next "double-flowered big red stick" in the temple. In these troubled times, the court will certainly not allow the two to have an unwarranted conflict, and there is no question of criticizing them.

Not knocking...

Is there some secret?

In addition to the Zhentong Dongtian Sect, other major sects also responded.

The pavilions and towers are all noisy.

Louguantai.

The green tea leaves are curling.

The young Taoist priests gathered around the fire in the courtyard to make tea and chat.

"The imperial court is really full of talented people. If we really give them a beating, I wonder if Master Ming Wang can bear it?"

"It shouldn't be a knock. I see that Liang Qu is also very powerful. He started from a small beginning and has made countless great achievements. He is not like Bai Guangyi and his ilk. One is new and the other is old, one is in the south and the other is in the north. It is obvious that they are in a relay state.

Since the Earl of Xingyi is on good terms with Master Mingwang, the court will never allow them to clash. I really don't want to see the two of them getting on good terms and splitting up. It's time for Liang Qu to become a saint and be punished by someone else."

"Hey, there is Master Ming Wang in front and Liang Qu of Dashun in the back. Why are all these powerful people learning Buddhist things instead of coming to our Louguantai?"

“Lord Xingyi is well-educated. He has two skills, one is inner and the other is outer. The outer one is the golden body of Buddhism, and the inner one is the method of our Taoism.” The young man in the black robe lifted his robe and sat down with a cup of tea.

"Ah? What do you mean?"

"Third Brother, tell me about it." "Yes, tell me about it. I haven't heard of it."

Everyone sat up.

The third brother put down his teacup.

"In the past, the old Taoist master gave the Wansheng Baoyuan to Xu Youguang, Duke of Wei. Xu Youguang passed it on to his son Xu Wenzhu, who passed it on to his personal guard. That personal guard's name was Yang Dongxiong, and his personal teacher was the Earl of Xingyi."

"Huh, is there such a thing?"

"Yes! Last time I went to the imperial capital, I heard from Uncle Lan from the Imperial Observatory that when the Northern Courtyard Naiman Mahakala opened his eyes, Xingyi Bo defeated him cleanly with a single move of his spear. He used the immortal technique copied from the third level of Wansheng Baoyuan."

hiss!
The young Taoists were shocked.

Is there such a thing?

The third brother held his forehead and said, "It's really helpless. Once the Buddhist golden body is used, everyone knows where it came from. It's hard to tell where the Wansheng Baoyuan comes from, and it varies from person to person. I don't listen to the elders talking about the origin, so I don't know it at all."

The world is both big and small.

Suddenly someone slapped his thigh.

"So, Lord Xingyi is one of us! We have twenty-two rare figures in Louguantai now!"

"Yes!"

"We should ask Uncle Ge for some silver so that we can host a banquet for Earl Xingyi when he comes!"

"That makes sense! We need money! We need a banquet! We can't push our family away!"

There was cheering in the house.

Liang Qu had no idea that someone was seriously discussing the nature of his components and dividing them up like slices of paper.

He was holding Guan Congjian's neck and laughing.

"Old Guan, why are you here too?"

"Master, I am a lay disciple of the Hanging Temple. Of course I have to come to listen to the lectures. I have asked for a month-long vacation!" Guan Congjian mumbled with a big pig's trotter in his mouth.

"No, I understand you're going to Datong Prefecture, but why are you in Huangzhou?"

Datong Prefecture is located not far north of Huangzhou. After leaving the Huai River, you can enter the tributary Bashui River and head north all the way.

Xu is here, and the eldest brother who has not been seen for several years has also agreed to come to Huangzhou. It is reasonable for Liang Qu and others to stop by Huangzhou and visit their relatives for a few days. Where did Guan Congjian get his relatives?
"Lichan said she wanted to buy some socks. It's very hot outside and they're not available anywhere else, so I came with her. Hmm!" Guan Congjian said as a matter of course, and then his hand covered his face.

Zong Lichan smiled awkwardly.

Liang Qule was delighted and immediately understood the connection between the events.

Seriously speaking, Huangzhou today is much more prosperous than it was a few years ago. Countless merchants settle here, and many tourists heading north also come here to shop.

"The Xu family is hosting a banquet for me tomorrow. Will you come?"

"Come!"

"Okay! You guys go shopping first."

Liang Qu and Long Eying left hand in hand.

"Why are you blocking my mouth?"

Zong Lichan said nothing and rubbed all the oil on her palms onto Guan Congjian's clothes.

Huangzhou is bustling for five or six days.

He got rid of the unfamiliarity with his long-lost senior brother, spent the next three days celebrating Liang Qu's achievement, and then trained a group of little brats from the Xu family for twelve hours, who kept bragging that their brothers were more capable, and turned to become Xingyi Bo's followers.

The sails are flapping.

Xu stayed at home to accompany her parents, ready to pick them up when Liang Qu and others returned from Datong Prefecture.

Guan Congjian naturally returned the rented boat and moved to the Liangqu boat.

Fortunately, the imperial treasure ship was big enough, so even with the addition of the eldest brother and Guan Congjian and his group, it didn't feel crowded.

April 21st.

The blue treasure ship broke through the waves and rushed into Datong Prefecture with the wind!

It was not until this time that Liang Qu discovered it.

Hanging Temple.

Really hanging!
